We would argue that Salma’s all-time boldest look was this one. Playing celebrated Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, Salma proved the neigh-sayers wrong, took on Harvey Weinstein, and even got an Oscar nomination. She also made Frida a thousand times more popular, the world over. That’s pretty bold. Check these tattoos inspired by Frida Kahlo!
